New York CityFebruary 18th, 2006 - It has only
been a few weeks since the Gates first appeared in Karakura. Orihime
Inoue had already visisted a few worlds, not being able to resist the
curiousity. On this day she comes across Chad, quietly listening to
some music, and she convinces him to visit New York City through one of
the Gates. He agrees, reluctatly at first. Once they enter the Big
Apple they have an unusual encounter with Mr. Nobody.Streets of KarakuraMarch 5th, 2006 - A few weeks after
their visit to New York City Chad comes across Orihime and Tatsuki
walking about Karakura. They both try to keep Tatsuki in the dark about
Soul Society, but Chad and Orihime start to get the feeling that it
will become increasingly difficult. Especially with the recent
phenomena surrounding the Gates.

TownsvilleMarch 19th, 2006 - (A note, there
was a scene prior to this referenced in the log, but I neglected to log
it. It involved a Hollow attack in Karakura) Chad goes out on his own
to explore the worlds through the Gates. He stumbles across Townsville,
the home of the Powerpuff Girls. He had encountered Buttercup a few
days before in Karakura, and here he gets the full introduction. He
also witnesses the Amoeba Boys attmepting to pull off a successful
crime, and failing miserably.

UraharopolyMarch 25th, 2006 - It has been
months since Ichigo and the others returned from Soul Society and
Chad's loss to Captain Kyouraku still stings. He decides to go after
one of the only people that can help him train his power: Kisuke
Urahara. Unfortuantely Chad didn't realize that trying to get anyting
from the bizarre shop-owner is like pulling teeth, and he has to earn
the right to train. By winning a game of Monopoly! Other players
include Giroro and Nergal Jr., and Tatsuki even drops by near the end.

DetentionMarch 30th, 2006 - Chad drops in on
Ichigo and Rukia who got some detention that day. They're forced to
clean the classroom together, which is a 20-minute task extended to two
hours thanks to their inability to work together. Chad also asks Ishida
a favor relating to his newfound employment at Urahara's shop.

LunchtimeApril 11th, 2006 - (A note,
there was a scene prior to this referenced in the log, but I neglected
to log it. It involved a party and a fireworks display, and Kenpachi
fighting Tatsuki) During a regular schoolday, the ususal suspects are
having lunch on their usual spot: The school roof. Tatsuki arrives to
show Ichigo her (Honorary) 11th Division armband, which was given to
her by Yachiru. I leave the scene just as PE class starts, but Kenpachi
apparently showed up and decided he was the new PE teacher.

We're Good At
What We DoApril 14th,
2006 - ..and what we do is punch things. Chad meets up with
Ranma Saotome, who was passing through Karakura. After a brief
introduction they get to know each other the only way male characters
in a shounen series know how to: Beating the ever-loving crap out of
each other. Ranma wins because he's a main character, and Chad is just
support. In the end, Chad offers to let Ranma stay in his apartment
while he's in Karakura. It beats sleeping in a tent in the rain.

RoomiesApril 20th, 2006 - (A note,
there was a scene prior to this referenced in the log, but I neglected
to log it. It involved a large battle in a Park in Karakura, where
Chad, Ranma, and several others battled Lust and other Syndicate
members.) Walking home one evening Chad comes across Ranma just as it
is about to rain. Still oblivious to Ranma's curse, Chad leads him to
his apartment. After a few close-calls, Ranma manages to avoid even
getting slightly damp! Yuna shows up in the end with a proposition for
the martial artist.

ConstructionApril 22nd, 2006 - Orihime's
apartment was demolished in a previous scene by a rampaging Ichigo and
Kenpachi. Chad stops by to help rebuild things, and he gets to put his
ridiculous muscles to use. There's some talking, some cookies, some
deja-vu involving an I-Beam, and Envy stops by to make things
complicated. Good times were had by (most) all.

ExplanationsApril 23rd, 2006 - Tatsuki
arrives at Urahara's Shop and finds Chad outside sweeping. The two have
a little chat where Chad fills her in a bit on all the things that have
happened. Tatsuki had already found out about Soul Society, so Chad
tells his own side of things, and offers a few explanations.

Tatsuki BrawlMay 28th, 2006 - Tatsuki walks
in on Chad training in Urahara's underground facility. She's interested
in testing herself on someone with crazy spiritual power, so she makes
Chad fight her. He was pretty uncomfortable with the idea of fighting
someone like her, but he agrees. If only because he knows she wants to
better herself.

Training with
InoueJune 11th, 2006
- Much like the last log, Chad is talked into an uncomfortable training
match by another friend. He likes the idea of fighting Orihime even
less than fighting Tatsuki. At least he knows Arisawa is used to being
punched at. But fighting the delicate, cheerful Orihime? He does it as
a favor, though he holds back quite a bit.

Menos Grande June 30th, 2006 - A Menos Grande
decides to peek its collossal head inside Karakura, and is met with
resistance from pretty much everyone. Ichigo decides to get all
irritated at the IPA for interfering, and gets on Superman's case. Chad
tries to talk some reason into his friend, though Superman resolves the
situation another way.

ConquistadoresJuly 22nd, 2006 - Things take
a turn for the disasterous for the Bleach cast, as the Arrancar arrive
on the scene. Ulquiorra and Yammy promptly begin beating down everyone
who approaches them. This scene plays out MOSTLY identical to how it
does in the manga, though it deviates considerably about half-way
through.

RecoveryJuly 23rd, 2006 - The day
following the Arancar attack has many of the victims recovering at the
General Hospital in Karakura. Chad and Orihime's rooms were near each
other, so they eventually meet up. Superman also drops by to check in
on them, and offers Chad a genuine membership in the IPA. There's a bit
of attempted angst over what happened, but Orihime cheers Chad up by
throwing a pink plushie at his head. Really? Who could angst after that?

The Cast Comes
Off August 7th, 2006
- The final healing process on Chad's arm compeltes, and Inoue shows up
at his apartment to give it one more look-over. And try to snap Chad
out of his funk again.

ProposalSeptember 7th, 2006 - Over a
month after the Arrancar attack Chad finds himself being left behind in
more ways than one. Ichigo vanishes to undergo his own mysterious
training, Orihime and many others bravely venture outside the Gates on
a regular basis. Chad's own attempts to strengthen himself prove
fruitless, until Yoruichi confronts him at his old haunt and makes a
proposal.

DiGi-IchiOctober 1st, 2006 - Chad
discovers Soi Fong, Ukitake and Yoruichi training Kitty Pryde at his
old hang-out and drops in for a chat. He also finds Yoruichi testing
out a new 'DiGi' model Gigai from Urahara, and Chad just can't resist
the cute.

Frozen DragonOctober 13th, 2006 - Chad's
training begins in earnest when he challenges Captain Hitsugaya, at
Captain Ukitake's request. Though Chad quickly sees just how much he
needs to improve before he can stand shoulder to shoulder to Ichigo
again. But it doesn't stop him, he only becomes more determined to
improve, and continue to improve.

InvitationOctober 17th, 2006 - Orihime
catches up with Chad after school, and the two walk home together. They
both fill each other in on everything they've been doing, and Orihime
officially invites Chad to join the Relief Society.NerimaOctober 22nd, 2006 - Chad
decides to head to Nerima, following the directions Ranma last left for
him, just to drop in on the Martial Artist and see the zone where he
lives. He doesn't stay long, but he gets to meet Akane, and become
familiar with the Tendo Dojo.

Masquerade BallOctober 28th, 2006 - Chad
takes part in his first Relief Society event, a Masquerade Ball. Though
the poor guy misses the point of dressing up for this event, and only
comes in a suit. Luckily Hokuto helps him save face by providing a
mask. Chad also meets up with Summoner Yuna and her 'Guardian', Envy,
and becomes a bit more aquainted with the girl from Spira.
